| Popis: | ABSTRACTDepending on the viewpoint of the author, discourse is presented in narration, or rather, discourse is first formed in the perception, narration, and interpretation of the history of civilizations. However, Western scholars have dominated the definition of the concept of ”civilization” in addition to the global output of this concept as well as the discourse about writing the history of civilization. As a result of this, there has been a severe Western-centric tendency in the current writing of the history of civilizations (both Western and Chinese). In order to address these problems in a meaningful way, the purpose of this article is to put forward a vital proposal: ”Re-writing the History of Civilizations.” It is a call for a vital path and a major initiative to establish a Chinese discourse from the root of the discourse narration, discourse speaking, and discourse interpretation of the history of civilizations, and is a new issue of the time. They expect Chinese scholars to collaborate with international scholars and unite the entire academic world to rewrite the history of civilizations, re-study the historical facts of mutual learning of civilizations, and further establish a view of civilization with China's knowledge system in various disciplines. |
